iMessage

Unknown Number: You're beautiful.
Who the hell sent that? And I'm not beautiful. How do they even know what I look like? I then sigh and text back.
Me: Um, who's this?
I silently wait for the response. Dying to know who it is.

Louis Tomlinson? Isn't he the kid in my film class? Why is he texting me?

Bea's POV

It was around lunch time when I finally saw Liam. I waved at him as he smiled and waved back. He then gestured me to come sit with him as I nodded. As I make my way to the table I get a message on my phone.

I take it out and see it was a text from Louis saying.

Louis: where r u?

Me: in the cafeteria. wbu?

Louis: football feild

Me: wat for?

Louis: just kickin the ball around for fun

Me: cool

"Who you texting?" asked Liam as I looked up at him.

"Uh..." I said as I was zoned out, trying to get my thoughts together. He then chuckled and led me to the table where he had his sandwich and chips, and textbook wide open.

"Louis." I said as I sat down.

"Louis? Why him?" he asked with shock.

"Because he's a friend? I guess... in a way..." I replied.

"Listen I know that you're buddy buddy with him, but please be careful around him." he said as he bit into his sandwich. I then smirked and grabbed a piece of his sandwich as he started swatting his hand.

"I'll stop only if you give me a good reason to." I said.

His eyes widened and he furrowed his eyebrows. He then sighed and looked at me with a serious face as he simply said, "No."

"Then I'm going to continue hanging with him." I said with a grin as he rolled his eyes and said, "Just don't if you know what's best."

I then groaned and said, "I'll only stop when I hear a good reason."

I was starting to get annoyed with Liam's constant warnings, so I decided to get up and leave. As I stood up I felt a hand on my wrist saying, "Don't go to him."

"Let go of me!" I said as his hand got tighter.

"I'm only doing this to protect you!" he said.

"Protect me from what?" I spat in his face as he didn't speak. I then got my wrist out of his grip and speed walked out of the cafeteria. I was now walking in the hallways, where it was completely quiet. Almost like a ghost town.

As I continued walking I heard footsteps and decided to ignore it. I was about to make a turn when someone grabbed my hand and spun me around. It was Liam.

"To make you spill your secrets!" he said as he sighed and mumbled something to himself.

"What?" I asked with hurt evident in my voice.

Liam sighed as he rubbed his face and said, "Um... yeah."

I felt my face turning redder by the minute and started to storm off to the field.

Louis' POV

I was kicking the ball around out of boredom as I kept thinking of Bea and I. I remember how I stayed over at the night, and smiled at the thought of being with her. Maybe I should ask her out? I mean I seem to bring out the best in her, as she does with me.

I continue to make goals with the ball, but then stop when I hear.

"Louis Tomlinson!" shouted a feminine voice. I turn around to see Bea coming towards me with a pissed off expression. I gulped and then looked behind her to see Liam running after her.

"What's going on?" I ask as she walked up to me. She then stopped walking and punched me in the face with her small fist. I spun and landed on the floor with my now hurting jaw.

I then grab my jaw and stand up to face her. "What the hell was that for?" I shouted as she gave me a 'You're dead.' look.

"How could you treat me like that? I trusted you and you decide to just be friends so you can find out my secrets!" she yelled as tears started to run down her face.

"What?" I asked completely confused.

"I trusted you!" she yelled as I stood there still confused about what the hell was going on.

"Bea, stop crying." said Liam as he bent down and rubbed circles on her back.

"Bea I was lying!" he said as Bea looked up at him.

"What?" she asked with complete shock.

"That wasn't the reason..." he said as Bea pulled back from his touch. She then stood up and said, "I don't want to talk to any of you! Not until you tell me the truth!"

With that she ran, but neither of us went after her 'cause we both knew what would happen.

"What did you tell to her?" I asked as Liam looked down in guilt.

"I told her to stay away from you, and she asked why." he started as I sighed.

"I told her you were just using her trust, and now here we are." he explained as I rubbed my eyes.

"Liam I'm telling you I've changed and it's for the better." I said as he sighed.

"We need to tell her everything..." I said as he nodded his head in agreement.

"I'm just scared of how she'll react." he admitted as I said, "Me too."
